OPSEC - Navy Operations Security
Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind. In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships." OPSEC is everyone's responsibility.
DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.
DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Good morning to those still up whose loved ones are in the final hours of BS. Almost there! Calls of joy and victory will be coming in hours.
Good morning, too, to those up early and heading to airports, or hitting the road again for the last leg of driving. To all traveling, be safe. Give yourself extra time because we are all oh so tired. Don't forget to breathe .... and smile .... we see our Sailors tomorrow ..... TOMORROW!
